Bishop should stop getting commentary

Wed, Dec 10, '25 at 12:44 AM

Gigs.


its tiring listen to him criticising every non trini in the team and big up the potential of every trini who’s not even in the team.


that and helping the kiwis deal with hope was inexplicable.


steups.

Curious. How long has Kemar Roach been a trini?

@imusic

He won’t go after roach. That would make his bias even more obvious, not that it is any less at the moment

@brians_da_best

I see.

So which was it when he gave ebullient praise to Justin Greaves and Shai Hope during and after the 4th innings of the last test match?

How come he didn’t give NZ tips on how to out Justin Greaves during his double century?

Wed, Dec 10, '25 at 1:14 AM

@imusic

Because of the backlash he got when he did that to hope!


he even got defensive in commentary over it.

Bishop is just a typical West Indian as far as cricket is concerned.

Insular, Bias, prejudice, Hateful of those who perform from other islands and such.

I have been listening to Bishop for years.


I do not understand the surprise being demonstrated here.

Bishop have been bigging up Trinis for years,

and more serious, attacking Bajans for years,

Do you listen to him when discussing trinis.

Based on listening to him:

  1. Anyone would think that Seales is another Malcolm Marshall.
  2. One would think that de icecream man was just unlucky.
  3. One would think that Pollard and Pooran were world beaters.


Have you ever heard him discussing how to get any Trini player out.

Have you heard him defending any non-Trini players while other commies were attacking them.


I am faulting Bishop, cause he acts like most of us here.

Some would say that we are not commies, but

How many really true commies speak neutral.

  1. Mickey Holding
  2. Carlos Braithwaite
  3. Pommie Mbangwa
  4. Danny Morrison
  5. Tony Cozier
  6. Reds Periera
  7. Henry Blofeld

I am sure that I am missing one or two others.

There too demonstrate bias at times, just not like Bishop.


I like Bishop, but I loss all respect for him as a commentator,

after that Shai Hope stunt and his unapologetic bahaviour after.

Sammy apparently ‘give away’ our secret bowling plans this morning in the interview

@brians_da_best

He supoorts Alzarri Joseph. I do not think he has a Trini bias.

Wed, Dec 10, '25 at 5:34 PM

@brians_da_best

Thats a dumb statement.

If you want to say Bish criticises WI players more harshly than other and sometimes his bias shows yeah. But he basically been saying exactly how the field should set, how they bowlers should bowl ao far on this the second day and really hasn't been wrong.

@WestDem

Wed, Dec 10, '25 at 11:33 PM

@TanteMerle

Exactly.


he strangely silent on seales performances thus far.
